C2000™ Technical Training Digital Power Supply Hands-On Workshop This one-day hands-on workshop provides an introduction to the digital control of switching power supplies. A digitally controlled dual-channel DC-DC buck converter is used to illustrate the concepts and provide results. The latest advanced on-chip microcontroller features allow easy implementation of techniques such as peak current mode control, greatly simplifying the system implementation. These techniques are discussed in detail and supported by example reference designs and experimental results. The seminar opens with a description of the characteristics which define a digital power supply. This section also describes the process of selecting a controller and the implementation of most popular power-conversion topologies. Block diagrams of several reference designs and evaluation kits are presented and discussed, including bridgeless power-factor correction, phaseshifted full-bridge DC-DC, LLC resonant, and multi-phase interleaved converters. The power supply applications discussed here include server power supplies, telecom rectifiers, battery chargers, LED lighting systems and renewable energy systems.

PWM generation for driving switches in different power topologies is presented along with important considerations for PWM and ADC timing. The advantages and disadvantages of PCMC schemes are discussed and compared with those of average current-mode control (ACMC) and voltage-mode control (VMC) schemes. Some of the major challenges to implement microcontroller-based PCMC schemes are discussed, including slope compensation, blanking, maintaining constant average output voltage with changing load, and complex PWM waveform generation for isolated power stages using synchronous rectification. Closed-loop system block diagrams for the seminar power stage under VMC and PCMC schemes are presented. The tuning of a 2-pole 2-zero controller structure is discussed, beginning with an intuitive method by mapping PID gains, to arriving at optimum coefficients by mathematical modeling of the system. Closed-loop operation results obtained with the seminar kit are presented, and a comparison is shown between step response results using a VMC-based system and the PCMC-based system.

C2000™ Technical Training Industrial Real-Time Control Seminar This three-day technical event combines three seminars into a comprehensive seminar covering real-time control of industrial electrical machines. The seminar will be useful to electronic,

electrical, and mechanical engineers engaged in the digital control of electrical machines.

Workshop Outline Day 1 – Control Theory Fundamentals The seminar opens with a one-day technical seminar which offers a refresher on elementary control theory which will be valuable to electronic, electrical and mechanical engineers of all levels. The material is organized into six equal-length sections as follows: Fundamental Concepts, Feedback Systems, Transient Tuning, Discrete Time Systems, Digital Controller Design, Implementation Considerations. The material is supported by many practical examples and tutorials, and includes a brief question & answer session at the end of each section. MATLAB® is used throughout the seminar to illustrate new concepts and to introduce each major topic. Day 2 – Motors & Motor Control The second day focuses on the architecture and control of electrical motors. In order to understand how to optimally control a motor, it is first necessary to understand how a motor works. The operation of the following popular motor types is discussed: Brushless DC Motors, Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors, AC Induction Motors, Stepper Motors. Once a motor has been selected for an application, an appropriate power stage must be designed to achieve maximum performance from the motor. Proper selection of the modulation technique employed with the power stage is also critical for maximizing performance. The following topics are covered in this section: PWM Tricks and Techniques, Energy Regeneration, SVM and Third Harmonic Modulation, Motor Basics and Motor Types, Power Control and Modulation Techniques, Control Techniques, Texas Instruments Motor Control Solutions.

www.ti.com/c2000training

In most modern motor-control systems, the control will be a digitally implemented as an algorithm running on a processor. Several factors influence the chosen control topology, including motor type and required performance in terms of motor speed and torque. The following topics are presented: Introduction to Feedback and Feed Forward, PI and PID Servo Control, Digitizing Your Control System, Field Oriented Control, (FOC), Current Sensing Techniques and Issues, Tracking Filters, Observers, Sensorless Field Oriented Control. Day 3 – C28x MCU Hands-On Workshop The final day of the seminar comprises a hands-on workshop using the C28x microcontroller. The workshop is based on the Piccolo™ F28069 device, which combines many common features and peripherals of the Piccolo and Delfino™ generations. Therefore, this workshop would be very useful to anyone interested in the C2000 MCU platform of devices. The workshop steps the user through system initialization, peripheral setup and programming an application into Flash memory using the Code Composer Studio™ Integrated Development Environment on-chip Flash programmer. Every lab exercise builds on the previous lab exercise, running a common application theme through the workshop. The lab exercises are performed using the F28069 controlSTICK USB Evaluation tool that will be provided at the class and available to take home after class.

Power Conversion & Control Seminar This one-day seminar aims to provide practicing engineers with a grounding in the digital control of power converters using the C2000 microcontroller. The course will be valuable to electronic, and electrical engineers of all levels who are engaged or interested in the digital control of power electronics. The seminar is divided into five sections, beginning with a technical overview of the C2000 microcontroller platform – a processer specifically designed for the control of switching power electronics. Section two describes four high-voltage digital power reference designs: a phase-shifted full bridge employing digital peak current mode control with ZVS, a 2-phase interleaved boost PFC, a bridgeless PFC, and a resonant LLC DC-DC converter. Each topology is explained in detail, together with software diagrams, test results, and schematics.

The third section focuses on the design of the digital control loop using a PFC converter as an example. The process is divided into seven steps, the first four concentrating on a high-speed inner current control loop, the last three steps describe the design of the outer voltage control loop. Section four is devoted to the design of two solar inverter boards. The first is a low voltage “explorer” platform, enabling control concepts to be rapidly prototyped and tested. The second is a high-voltage solar reference design consisting of a two-phase boost, isolated LLC resonant, and single-phase inverter stages. The seminar concludes with a summary of the C28x generation of MCUs and the various development tools and resources available to the designer.
